Hello and what a treat to share this week’s AnnaLift challenge. Joanie is unplugged from the internet and has asked me to step in and host the AnnaLift this week……………….mmmmm…………….let’s see if I remember what to do.
NO RULES
CREATE
PLAY
ENJOY

Oh, I’ve found the perfect inspiration for us!! And because there are NO RULES, I picked TWO inspiration pages for this week’s challenge that simply take creativity to the CoolART level!..............and they are a bit messy’ so I love them even more!!

Oh yah! Gotta remind ya………………………..

It’s Saturday, and time for another challenge from Anna Aspnes. Each Saturday the AnnaTeam selects one creative page from the Anna gallery as the weekly ‘AnnaLift.’ Check out the inspiration page and decide what speaks to you. Is it the design, the color, the wordART, or maybe the photo? Choose ONE idea from the page to lift or choose it ALL and lift it completely. There is no right or wrong way to ArtPlay. Be inspired and create your ‘AnnaLift’ and then upload your page to the Anna gallery, plus include it here in this forum thread. Upload your page by Friday 10.16.15 by NOON EST with the title, ‘AnnaLift ’ and one lucky participant will be randomly selected to win a $5.00 GiftKard to Anna’s shop. The winner will be posted each Friday here in the forum.

Anna’s products mix well with so many kits/designers and Anna welcomes you to include these with your Anna Products on your AnnaLift page.

Back to the ARTPART!!!:)

This week we are lifting an UrbanStitchez theme that these two artist created and by the number of tags on the ART, these creations caught your eyes too! AND……………….choosing these pages makes this a ‘CHAIN LIFT’ which you know I adore when gallery members give a shout out to those who inspired them!!! (HINT- read zlemon’s note!!)

The use of the UrbanStitchez in such a creative and clever ART design is so stink’n cool and so inspiring in both of these awesome pages.

Zlemon was inspired by her ‘inner’ Adryane and ValeJules to add some color and make her ‘perfect pumpkin’ into a perfect work of ART

Veer used a MultiMedia Sun and an UrbanThreadz Frame to create an ART piece that absolutely needs to be framed and hung or printed into note cards to share some ‘sun shine’ with others.

I am so anxious to see what everyone creates, as you never disappoint. Now it is up to you to choose just what you want to lift from this page. You may choose to lift a single element of the layout, or lift it all - whatever grabs you and takes hold of you when you look at this layout. Have some fun with it - I am sure the results will be awesome – remember anything goes, as long as you are having fun!!!

This week’s AnnaLift will inspire all of us in some way. Maybe you will choose to:
-use UrbanStitchez in a seasonal creation
-add brushes and transfers to UrbanStitchez for a unique design
-use all or part of an UrbanStitch or MultiMedia (remember if it’s in psd form, the options are endless!)
-incorporate the UrbanStitchez into your page design or make the UrbanStitchez the main focus of your ART
-frame the UrbanStitchez or maybe LoopdaLoop your UrbanStitchez
-choose any UrbanStitchez…………Christmas, Arrows, Hearts, Korners, Frames, SunShine, Pumpkins, Banners, Leaves, Cameras, Stars and more!!

What creative ideas will inspire for you this week in the AnnaLift challenge?
Try something new.
Have some fun.
Enjoy a new ArtPlay or love an old ArtPlay
Pat yourself on the back for being an awesome YOU.
Upload your AnnaLift to the gallery so we can tell YOU that you are awesome too!
It really doesn’t get any more cool or simple than that!

We can’t wait to see all the fabulous and creative AnnaLifts and we invite you to share your ART with us in the Anna gallery where we will love and encourage you.

If you have never challenged yourself to an AnnaLift…………just do it!
If you have never posted or shared your AnnaLift……………...just do it!
If you have time to leave some love for someone in the gallery….do it! (you just never know how your words could inspire and encourage someone!)

Thank you zlemon and veer, for sharing your amazing page and your beautiful ART with us and inspiring us this week to create a very UrbanCool Anna gallery this week!!

Fantastic choice! I love both to bits!!

I'm going to make a new page but at moment I'd like to post this page I just happen to have made for a book I want to give to my mother as a Christmas present.

The cool shapes and colors of both layouts inspired me to jump into a bit of a fantasy world.... Thanks, Donna!

Both are amazing pages! I took inspiration from zlemon's vertical design, thread, a bit of the orange, yellow & green tones, the handwriting font underneath and the stains at the top.
